Lately I've been watching some more hockey over the last few weeks, just random games both conferences. As someone who has drastically reduced the amount of hockey I watch since about 5 years ago, I think it's just peculiar how almost every team looks and plays identical now. The only outlier I've seen is Las Vegas. Probably has to do with analytics pointing all towards the same model of play everyone ends up converging towards, like in other sports. It's honestly a bit boring.

Analytics do nothing but harm.

Sens just won 6th in a row. Maybe this team has turned the corner. Havent been in post season since 16-17
Ullmark in December:
7-0-1 .959% 1.23GAA

Every player that leaves Buffalo turns into a star. Kings need to trade with them.

Maybe this means Portillo is going to become a stud.

The Netherlands
Oilers with two last minute game tying goals this week, followed by an OT win. 4 points instead of 0.

Just watch how often Vegas scores in the final 5 minutes of a game when trailing/tying. Thats ridiculous.
